TCS bags $2.4 million DoD contract to build satellite Network in Afghanistan

TeleCommunication Systems, a provider of mission-critical wireless communications, has announced won a three-year, $2.4 million contract to build and implement an IP-based private satellite network that will support US Department of Defense personnel in Afghanistan.

By CBR Staff Writer

This network, scheduled to be fully operational by mid-July, will provide voice, video, and data services in remote areas that lack terrestrial service. TCS will provide 24×7 network management and monitoring to ensure the highest network availability for the end users.

Previously, TCS has built networks to support government agencies in South West Asia, Africa and in South America, as well as the largest private VSAT network in the Asia Pacific region for a US banking organization.
